 BRIDGES:
Tonchi McIntosh
CD Released 2001
Tonchi and friends travelled down to Killarney,
Warrnambool, South West Victoria for three weeks of
recording, swimming, singing and inspiration.
The Belfast dunes at Killarney and an
old fisherman's cottage surrounded by the black lava
rocks, reefs, coastal marshes, black swans and water
birds provided the ideal setting for the creation of
Tonchi's debut album titled 'Bridges'.
If you listen carefully you can hear the
rain on the homestead's tin roof, various native birds
and a black crow that sat near the window and sang as
we recorded the vocal track for the title track 'Bridges'.
Producer Shane Howard teamed up with his
long term recording partner, sound engineer exraordinaire
Michael Letho, to create the album. Local Guditjimura
musicians Andy Alberts, Robbie Bundall and David Arden
also joined in. Their timely arrivals on the scene ensured
a good spirit and an earthy grounding in the local aboriginal
reality.
Shane continued working on the tracks
at his home studio, and the final mixing and mastering
was done at Michael Lethos 'Front Room' studios in Melbourne
in 2001. The album was released in NSW in late 2001
and in Melbourne and VIC in 2002.
